♥ Those Who Just Don’t Understand (Chronic Illness) ♥

Everyday we all go through this constant pain that keeps us limited and unable to a lot of things like those who don’t share our struggle. A lot of people say the physical pain can’t be too bad, but they cant see the excruciating pain that goes not only through our bodies, but heart and soul.

Every Single Day…

What are you doing after school?

Are you going to college?

Whats you dream job?

What does your future look like?

Those questions eat at me more than the physical pain.. All my dreams since is was a young child are gone.. Dance, College, work, family, etc… Taken away right in front of my eyes from an illness that left me sick throughout my teen years. No answers to what it was or why i was feeling this way, but it didn’t stop there.

After 7 years I was finally diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. The questions kept coming..

You know you can’t manage that, right?

You will never accomplish that, why even try?

Why don’t you just give up?

Those are questions people ask that makes me want to break down and cry.

It pains me knowing I won’t ever be the same person living the dreams i planned on for so long.

But I won’t give up…I can’t give up.

The love and support from my family and friends keep me going! Wanting to make a difference  keeps me going. Together we can do this..

Thank you for visiting my blog!

Stay Beautiful
